Well, you must know by now: I’m an Apple fan. Yet, theses slides that leaked from Microsoft are a bit disappointing, right? Well, they’re mainly trying to chase Apple. And we know that Apple “killers” often lose.
You know the drill. Star warks => Geek => Internet. First is a retro poster of Star Wars.
Then, victorian portraits of Star Wars characters. In this one, C-3PO.
Well, Steve, man, it seems like you’ve been pwnd.
The E3 expo took place this week (June 15-17) and Nintendo announced its new gaming device, the real sequel to the DS, the 3DS. Yes, the 3, before the D, is about a 3D screen.
A Palm rep. said:
“I’m not allowed to talk about future roadmaps, especially because we’re in the process of being acquired by HP, so I can’t say. But yes we have a road map. We are working on future devices. And a new version of the OS. So I think, you’re going to find the next year very exciting.”
So, new devices, cooler WebOS… Interesting. WebOS is the most serious threat to the iOS. Wait, what? Yes, you did read that. Why? Android will die, slowly, confused.
Today, MobileMe has been deeply updated. The servers felt the update pain but now, everything seems to be functioning harmoniously. New features arrives, at last, such as support for external mail and a new navigation system. Know more.
One thing I never liked about Firefox is that it felt very un-elegant. Now, it seems the Mozilla team has made a very good job enhancing the design. Check some more, and get to know more about Firefox 4.0 new features.
This is a crazy story.
A 12 year old boy rescued his sister and himself from a moose, while they were having a nice walk, by using World of Warcraft skills. He taunted (like a WoW warrior) the moose and his sister ran away. Then, he Fainted Death (Hunter skill).
I know, I’m a little bit late. The awesomest feature is the Reader. Now, it may change your entire Web experience. And if you want some extensions, check this blog.
Note that the first link leads you to Apple to download the beast. Now, if you want an article explaining how cooler is Safari 5, take my hand.
So, what is Caffeine? Quickly, it’s an indexing system that searches the web to offer more relevant results 50% faster. Whether it’s a blog post, a new video, the link will be up and running in no time on the search results pages.
Twitter wants to simplify the way we tweet by shortening links that are tweeted themselves. Now, you know how they will use Tweet data to their Promoted Tweets program.
They will use an awesome new domain: t.co
In addition to a better user experience and increased safety, routing links through this service will eventually contribute to the metrics behind our Promoted Tweets platform and provide an important quality signal for our Resonance algorithm—the way we determine if a Tweet is relevant and interesting to users. We are also looking to provide services that make use of this data, an example would be analytics within our eventual commercial accounts service.
But, TNW noticed that, now, 120 is the new 140 (as for character limit).
